Kautz, Richard. Labyrinth Year: Walking the Seasons of the Church: Morehouse Publishing, 2005.
Nothing expresses the mystery of our search for the divine as well as the labyrinth. As seekers walk to the center of the spiral, their minds quit and turn to God. Walking out again, they bring into the world the spiritual gifts they’ve received.

In A Labyrinth Year, Richard Kautz guides readers on a labyrinth pilgrimage that winds through the seasons of the liturgical year, with devotions – to be used while walking the labyrinth – based on the thoughts and emotions of characters whose stories are told in the seasonal scriptures. As readers explore the journeys of these people of faith, they connect with the deeper meaning of the stories and learn to live them out in their own experience. Publisher.
